Chapter 896: 896 I Want to Get Engaged to You
“Grandpa and Grandma mean…” Zhuang Liu was about to ask when Grandma Tao interrupted him.
Grandma Tao looked out of the window and smiled. “It’s getting late. Zhuang Liu, stay for dinner. Rourou’s uncle and aunt will be here tonight. It will be very lively.”
Zhuang Liu had yet to react when Tan Rou poked his back and agreed on his behalf. “Okay, Grandma.”
Grandma Tao looked at Zhuang Liu’s dazed expression and smiled at Grandpa Tao. No matter what Zhuang Liu’s identity was outside, he was still their grandson-in-law in front of them. The two elders were very satisfied with his performance today.
A large round table had been arranged for today’s meal. There were no restrictions on the seats in the Tao family’s dining room. They could sit wherever they wanted, so Tan Rou brought Zhuang Liu to sit beside her parents.
This was not the first time Zhuang Liu had met the Tao family. They were all doing business in the same circle. Even if they had never worked together, they had met at banquets.
However, this was the first time he met them as Tan Ron’s boyfriend. At this moment, he was not facing his business partners, but his future family.
Tan Ron’s uncles and aunts were wary of Zhuang Liu’s identity at first, so they did not dare to ask him difficult questions, afraid that they would ruin their relationship with the Zhuang family.
It was not until Grandpa Tao said that Zhuang Liu did not come today as the head of the Zhuang family, but as Tan Ron’s boyfriend that they started to chat with Zhuang Liu.
They admired Zhuang Liu very much and approved of him being together with Tan Rou. However, the Tao family only had one precious daughter in this generation. She was so outstanding that they really could not bear to marry this precious daughter off.
“President Zhuang…” Xiao Zhuang,” Second Uncle Tao said with a straight face,” we know how you treat our Rourou. We don’t object to you dating, but Rourou is still a freshman. If you want to get married, you have to wait until she graduates from university.”
The other members of the Tao family had the same attitude. Tan Rou was still a child and couldn’t get married so early.
Zhuang Liu smiled gently. “1 understand what Second Uncle said. I’ve discussed it with Xiao Rou. We’ll talk about marriage after she graduates.”
After hearing Zhuang Liu’s answer, the Tao family did not make things difficult for him anymore. After dinner, Tan Rou sent Zhuang Liu back. As they walked, they talked about tonight’s dinner.
“Your family has such a good atmosphere.” Zhuang Liu was very envious. “Everyone is very gentle, even to an outsider like me.”
“You’re not an outsider. You’re my lover,” Tan Rou said.
Zhuang Liu suddenly hugged Tan Rou. “Rourou, I want to get engaged to you. 1 want to get engaged now.”
“Then why didn’t you say anything about it when my second uncle mentioned it?” Tan Rou asked.
Zhuang Liu also wanted to say it, but he was afraid that the Tao family would not like him and thought that he was too impatient.
“Your second uncle said marriage, but I am just talking about an engagement. How can that be the same?” Zhuang Liu.
“It’s almost the same. We can’t rush into this. We still have to discuss more about it first.”
Zhuang Liu was very happy. “Rourou, once I settle my family matters, I will come to your house to propose.”
Tan Rou remembered the Zhuang Liu family’s matter and asked, “Has your second uncle and second aunt made any movements recently?”
Zhuang Liu replied, “They’ve been very stable recently, so stable that it’s abnormal. Moreover, my people also found traces of He Xi. She was taken away by Han Min, but 1 don’t know where Han Min took her to.”
“I don’t think Han Min is someone who would love He Xi. Did He Xi’s parents pressure Han Min to get He Xi out? Didn’t you go to Country M to look for He Xi’s parents?” Tan Rou asked. What did they say?”
Zhuang Liu shook his head and said, “He Xi’s parents are still very concerned about He Xi. It’s just that the He family’s business is in trouble overseas. They can’t come back for the time being, and they can’t bring He Xi back.”
Tan Rou understood. “No wonder when He Xi was acting like a fool, her parents didn’t appear either. It’s because they can’t come back..”
